McTeacher's Journal

WOW! I can hardly believe that all these months have passed since I last made an entry. "Seems like yesterday".....as they say. This has been a 'whirlwind' fall! I am hoping that things DO slow down a bit because "I'm" slowing down and may be getting ready to come down with a big case of the "Burnout Syndrome".

Thanksgiving came and went with tremendous speed as always, and now Christmas is just around the corner. I spent, Thanksgiving with Darryl, Chell, Austin and Evan. Michelle's mom, dad and sister were there also. I think I even relaxed for a couple of hours.

I survived my ASU class and that is an understatement. There were so many glitches and demands from ASU. For the first few weeks, students were confused, I was confused and it remained one big confusion for the first six weeks, but eventually we arrived on the right track and it all ended well. I am still grading papers, but hope to get grades in Tuesday, 12/18. Next semester will be much calmer on the ASU scene. For now, it's on to the joy of Christmas!
